I watched this 10 minutes video from MEMRI shared publicly by an Arab Atheist friend named +Imad Iddine Habib​​ and would like to pause and write few lines.

First if all, I know that MEMRI is an association created by Jewish people, and I know that people are sometimes very skeptical when it comes to watching their published videos, even though all they (MEMRI) do is simply copy and paste and add subtitles to the videos, without changing them. And I also know that many people accuse them of being biased, pro Israel, and sometimes mistranslate words.

Of all the videos I have seen, this defies all these accusations of MEMRI, because if their goal was something else, then they wouldn't have published this video. As a Palestinian Arab, I first want to confirm that the subtitles added are highly accurate. Second, I really like the words of this Muslim cleric, even though I don't agree with Islam in particular, and with any religious doctrine in general, but the words of this Muslim represent the hope I am looking for, from Muslims and Islam in general, to encourage coexistence and peaceful living.

I don't know about you, but I consider his words as a huge step forward, in an endless road of difficulties, because the 1000 mile road has to start with one step, and I believe this is how humanity could achieve peace in a multicultural multi-religious environment.

It gives me hope to hear the sentiments expressed in this video. This is the first time that I've heard a Muslim preacher imploring his fellow Muslims to act in a friendly manner towards other people who believe differently. ﻿

You are so right in your summary. This could well be the first step in the much needed islamic 'reformation' if other muslims pick it up and carry these ideas forward. Thank you for clarifying the video in your intro and well found and posted +Ihab A​﻿

+nuri baltalıoğlu Show me verse from Bible that says the same thing, I do not reject bible wholly because I'm not suppose to.

But such a verse does not exist in bible, if people following bible claim something that is different, but I'm not talking about what I think, I'm talking about Quran says about itself.

There is a simple reason for placing such verses, if with all the modern technology and all the modern facilities people like Haroon Yahya are rampant and trying to prove we didn't evolve (creationism) and you dad being a biologist doesn't understand evolution of man at least.

You actually think people would have considered Mohammad even sane if he would say "Guy let me tell you we evolved from primate",People: "What are primate?"Mohammad: "It's like a monkey but without a tail, lives in a tree and eat primarily fruits".People: "Now we are sure you've lost it, kill him!!".

If I say that to my dad who is a literate person, Masters in Electrical Engineering, he can't understand it, you actually think people from village of Makkah would?

These are verses with hidden meaning, if you get the meaning, you got it, if you didn't you didn't understand the verse, it's as simple as that. A tricky statement in the book that a shepherd from Makkah would never come up with, unless his IQ was beyond what we can understand, if that is true he knew what he was talking about.

As for "we created man on Earth" ask your dad where we were created, go to your closest mosque and ask them.

No one will tell you Earth, everyone will tell you heaven, but there is "No where" in Quran heaven. But because as soon as they say "Earth" they can't explain "Get down". So don't try to argue on the subject if you don't know it properly, first go and check what people say then we'll talk about it.

Where were things Hijacked?

First of all you aren't even reading what I say on other discussions, Quran is not word of God, no where in Quran it says that. Anyone who says that is a liar.

Quran is a book inspired to Mohammad, when Newton was sitting under the tree and the apple fell on ground, it inspired him to think about gravity, ultimately ending up in writing book Principia.

Everyone is inspired, but most people are just blind followers, some follow religious leaders (who lead them directly to hell) others follow atheist ideas.

No one is ready to sit and think, if you think you'll be different, if you simply agree with atheist or simply agree with theist, then you are nothing but a follower, Quran actually stops people from doing that, people are told clearly don't be a follower.

So you want God to inspire everyone in the world? They are inspired as long as they think on their own and not follow others "Blindly" (which you are doing too).

If you see yourself in the mirror then you've seen God, you aren't God but even the computer that you use to write me back is God, even the stuff you will eat tonight and when you excrete tomorrow morning is God.

Each and everything is GOD, claiming "I haven't seen proof of God" is totally illogical, because you can't detect God, not in world nor in atom smashers, you think we humans are so smart that to detect God? When everything around us is God.

God does not mess with the way universe works, he never has and never will.

I already explained you how God could be omnipotent, God is the power, every atom, everything less than an atom, every bit of energy is God.

He should change history for you humans?

"Oh look that poor girl is getting raped, I should stop it"? Really?

You actually think it's a God or your slave? It's the universe, everything in it, the rapist and raped are both made of same material that is God.

Yeah may sound like assumption to you but that is not my main reason to agree with existence of God, that is just my concept to show how God could exist being omnipotent and everything without ever messing with the world.

My proof again are the verses from Quran, it's your choice, follow blindly people who lead you or choose your own way.

If you find one other person like me, who has ideas like me, show me.

I follow Quran and I simply have my own ideas, I do not follow people.﻿

What a person believes isn't really an issue or any other person's business. It's more what a person does with their belief which makes it relevant by infringing upon another in anyway. The rights of an individual to practice their faith ends where the rights of another to not be encroached upon begin. Mission: Non violently oppose religious doctrine which promotes hate, prejudice, non free thinking and where it causes harm. Not singling out any particular faith. Where the faith causes harm no longer can people of sense and reason stand by and be perceived to respect their dogma through this perceived unspoken agreement to not speak out for fear of causing offense. There is nothing we could say or do to come close to the offense the doctrines of faith create to those of us with any sense of decency, fairness and love of all humanity. Ironically unlike the many conditions the faiths place upon their acceptance of certain people and groups our respect for humanity is unconditional beyond neither hurting another or depriving another. If it harms none then do as you will. Islam and Judaism are seen as minority groups in the West and as racist far right organisations hide behind the banner of anti-religion. We have and want no association with such groups and do all that is physically possible to prevent such groups or their members using our page as a vehicle for their hate.
